This is the short story I think of when Holmes short stories are mentioned. It was my favorite when I was young and remains so today.
Discussion tomorrow with the #NoPlaceLikeHolmes group. 🤓

This is still a favorite. The most strikingly part is that we really discover that Holmes is physically strong. I think it's hinted out elsewhere, particularly with Watson's mention of his stamina and ability to traipse everywhere when he's on to something. This has more of Poe's Purloined Letter feel to and seems like one where the reasoning is more easily followed. #Sherlocked

Daisey This is one of my favorites as well. 8y

This one was quite good, and is probably one of my favorites so far! We get to see the crime in action and the ending was quite unexpected. #sherlocked #serialreader

This case is so far my favorite out of this series. We finally get to following along while the case develops instead of listening to the explanations of the perpetrators or Sherlock himself. #Sherlocked

Daisey I really liked this one as wee! 8y

@Kathrin reminded me of this one, which if really should be next so either this story or the Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb are next and given how short they are I don't think it matters too much which you read first. I can't believe I skipped this one as it's one of my favorite Sherlock stories. #Sherlocked

moranadatter I'm planning to read them in order. I'm excited for this one. 8y

InLibrisVeritas Thank you for the updates! 8y

jpmcwisemorgan @InLibrisVeritas You're welcome! I'm trying to keep track but there are so many pretty books to read. 😊 8y

The past few days my reading has been pretty abysmal...thank goodness for #SerialReader and Sherlock Holmes❣️It seems to be all I can comprehend 😳

SerialReader

MicheleinPhilly I can't concentrate on my books at all. I get through 10 pages and then think, "Oh yeah, I'm still sad. And PISSED." ??? 8y

Suzze Glad I'm not the only one. Everything seems off since yesterday morning. 8y

Cinfhen @Suzze @MicheleinPhilly This reading funk is bad...I'm finding my mind and body are craving music 🎶 and it's actually very therapeutic 8y

SerialReader Right there with you. Thanks for the kind words, glad the app has helped some! I added a new Dystopias section but otherwise haven't found the energy to work on the app lately. 8y

badnorthern Me too! I felt drugged for the past couple of days. I'm listening to an audiobook if that counts... 8y

Cinfhen @serialreader 🙌🏻your app is really a powerful tool, I can't thank you enough 😊 8y

Cinfhen @badnorthern I can't even concentrate on an audio, good for you that you can 💗its all the negativity, animosity and overall feeling of doom that seems to be bothering me most. I'm ready for the world to move forward, come together, stop choosing sides and be united ❤️💛💚💙💜sorry for my mini rant.... 8y

Found this at a coffee shop. it mixes 2 of my favorite things: puzzles and reading. Looking forward to putting the puzzle together while I read the story! #MysteryJigsaw #NerdLife

Keiglass Might not do mine for a few weeks but very excited! 8y

annahenke Nice! #audiopuzzling 8y

Ruri_kaichou @Keiglass I decided to do mine bore since it may take me a while. You will probably finish before me. Lol 8y

Ruri_kaichou @annahenke also #TVPuzzling. Haha! I started the puzzle while watching the last episode of Stranger Things 8y

KCorter That looks like paradise. 8y

Ruri_kaichou @KCorter it's so fun and challenging. I read up to where I'm supposed to and I'm 80% done with the puzzle but I have no clue what the answer is. I'm so bad at solving mysteries 8y

KCorter That makes it more fun! I love being surprised in a mystery! Not duped of course, but the fun of a mystery is trying to see if you guessed correctly. I don't mind being wrong. Sometimes that means the author is especially talented. From what I've read of Sherlock Holmes, that seems to be the case. :) 8y
